what about the shadows, they don't seem to be suffering from usual bias acne issues.

Do you use any sort of RT? or just base Unreal 5 features.

Sandro M @theironlefty.bsky.social · Apr 18

You can still use them on Linux and outdated Win10 if you're dedicated 😄, I still use my Samsung Odyssey+ like that.

Are you using a tiling noise texture for the latex/plastic normalmap/grains? or is it actual baked texture.

looks good.

Yes, PhysX in Mirror's Edge runs in X87 single thread instructions and doesn't matter how good your CPU is it will always run horribly.

Hey everyone,

I've just wrapped up a game jam called Boss Rush.

Our project was made using Unreal Engine and features an Steampunk/Bioshock aesthetic that I had a blast working on.

I'd love for you to check it out: veeyuh.itch.io/clocktergeist

Look at the high poly Jeep interior I made for Jurassic World Evolution. I had 3 weeks from scratch to low poly textured and game ready for the interior. That included finding my own reference but seems I did well enough with zero feedback changes or edits.

Late night find that CS:2 has exposed dev tools from the wiki via launch command, also found out the foliage impostors cause extreme quad overdraw... #CitiesSkylinesII #CitiesSkylines2

you can also take this further by packing normals in alpha channels only (ex: albedo A, nrm A).

Sandro M @theironlefty.bsky.social · Dec 30

swizzling your normal-maps Red channel (X) into Alpha has better quality because of how DXT5 handles A channel compared to usual 5:6:5. the most difference is in diagonals on top. also as bonus since now you have to normalize in shader/mat you can pack other stuff in R and B.
